    Hello,

    Ive seen alot of pictures where people breed the albino with the normal version. Would it be inhumane to cross a albino with a starlight (L182)? Would this even be possible without creating genetically weak fish? And your ideas on what the fish would look like?

    Thanks,
    Mitch

    it is possible to crossbreed them.
    L182 is a beautiful fish, I would advice not to mix them.

    Which CAT, is THAT!?

    I agree with Khalid ..the possibility exists, but it's unlikely!

    Why would you embark on this....?

    I , keep and propagate several of these and related Loricariids.

    if you just want more INTERESTING Ancistrus (or others)

    OR if you want More Albino or More Starlights
    I have both , all tankbred.
    ..then I suggest you PM

    I have several types housed together in a few aquaria...I haven't noticed overt spawning intent between the species...YET!
